Etymology: eigenmannorum: Named for C. H. Eigenmann and R. S. Eigenmann.
Eponymy: Charles Harvey Bollman (1868–1889) was an America naturalist principally interested in fish and myriapods, considered by Jordan to be one of the most brilliant and promising naturalists ever known despite being just 20 when he died. [...] Rosa Eigenmann née Smith (1858–1947), was married (1887) to Carl (above) and was also a noted ichthyologist. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
